When Vijay signed the film, he told the producer… ‘You are making a film when I am going into politics. I hope you’re aware of the obstacles the film would face.'” None of the current issues were surprised. “He knew he was going to face obstacles. That’s why he said the same thing. It was well expected. We are not surprised,” he explained. His statement shows that the team anticipated the possible challenges even before the film began.
